MATLAB Parallel Server

Perform MATLAB and Simulink computations on clusters and clouds

MATLAB Parallel Server™ lets you scale MATLAB^® programs and Simulink^® simulations to clusters and clouds. You can prototype your programs and simulations on the desktop and then run them on clusters and clouds without recoding. MATLAB Parallel Server supports batch jobs, interactive parallel computations, and distributed computations with large matrices.

All cluster-side licensing is handled by MATLAB Parallel Server. Your desktop license profile is dynamically enabled on the cluster, so you do not need to supply MATLAB licenses for the cluster. The licensing model includes features to support unlimited scaling.

MATLAB Parallel Server runs your programs and simulations as scheduled applications on your cluster. You can use the MATLAB optimized scheduler provided with MATLAB Parallel Server or your own scheduler. A plugin framework enables direct communication with popular cluster scheduler submission clients.

Prior to R2019a, MATLAB Parallel Server was called MATLAB Distributed Computing Server.

Write Code Once, and Use It in Multiple Environments

Prototype and debug applications on the desktop with Parallel Computing Toolbox™, and easily scale to clusters or clouds without recoding. Develop interactively and move to production with batch workflows.

Run on Multiple Machines Without Algorithm Changes

Develop a prototype on your desktop, and scale to a compute cluster without recoding. Access different execution environments from your desktop just by changing your cluster profile.

Scale Up parfor-Loops to Clusters and Clouds

Plot During Parameter Sweep

Copy Files Between MATLAB Client and Workers

Execute iterations in parallel and get results faster.

Access CPUs and GPUs on Centralized Resources

Take advantage of high-end hardware in your organization’s cluster without leaving the MATLAB desktop environment.

Discover Clusters and Use Cluster Profiles

Run MATLAB Functions on Multiple GPUs

Adding cluster profiles to MATLAB to allow access to available cluster resources.

Scale Up Computations

Run compute-intensive MATLAB applications and Simulinkmodels on compute clusters and clouds. MATLAB Parallel Server supports batch processing, parallel applications, GPU computing, and distributed memory.

Automate Management of Multiple Simulink Simulations

Easily set up multiple runs and parameter sweeps, manage model dependencies and build folders, and transfer base workspace variables to cluster processes. Use the Simulation Manager user interface to visualize and manage multiple runs of Simulink models on a cluster.

Parallel Simulations Workflow

Monitor multiple simulations in one window.

Process Big Data from Windows, Mac, or Linux

Use the same MATLAB analytics on small or large volumes of data. From your Windows^®, Mac^®, or Linux^® desktop, you can process big data on Spark™enabled Hadoop^®clusters or on traditional clusters with standard file systems.

Control Where Your Big Data Code Runs

Process Big Data in the Cloud

Additional Installation Steps for Hadoop Clusters

Use tall arrays and datastores to analyze large data sets.

Overcome Memory Barriers

Execute calculations that won’t fit in the memory of a single machine without needing to recode your algorithm or use a shared-memory architecture.

Run MATLAB Functions with Distributed Arrays

Benchmarking A\b with Distributed Arrays

Distributed arrays allow you to execute calculations with data that is too big for the memory of a single computer.

Manage Any Size Cluster with a Single License

End users are automatically licensed on the cluster for the products they use on the desktop. The cluster requires only a MATLAB Parallel Server license.

Use Your Desktop Toolboxes on the Cluster

MATLAB Parallel Server is the only license required on the cluster. Dynamic licensing enables each user’s specific desktop license profile on the cluster.

Parallel Computing Support in MATLAB and Simulink Products

Run all your licensed desktop products on the cluster with just the MATLAB Parallel Server license.

Use Your Existing Hardware and Infrastructure

Create a cluster from a few dedicated machines and manage jobs with MATLAB Job Scheduler, or integrate with your existing cluster and manage jobs with your third-party scheduler. Users can manage their jobs without leaving MATLAB.
